History

1980-s

The ensemble was created in 1986 as a project of four Saint Petersburg Conservatory students: Andrey Konstantinov (soprano domra), Andrey Smirnov (bayan-accordion), Mikhail Dzudze (double bass balalaika) and Igor Ponomarenko (alto domra). At one time the students were called up for military service. After the first year of this service they were transfered to the local army ensemble which consisted of orchestra, choir and ballet. Some time later an idea to create a new ensemble was born and this one was called "Russian Souvenir". At this time it consisted of a big number of participants and many of them were not able to read musical notes that it why musicians tried to find a special language: they picked out some well-known music pieces and combined them with folk melodies. Then the first line-up of Terem-Quartet was formed: Andrey Konstantinov, Andrey Smirnov, Mikhail Dzudze and Igor Ponomarenko.

At this time we promised each other that just the ensemble will be the main thing for all of us. We have already understood that we are interesting only when we are together. Out "Terem" is not just a beautiful building. There are no chiefs for us, everyone does his bit and it formes what we are building. In our music we unite different genres under one roof. Terem is opem for guests, we are always glad to see them^[1] (Andrey Konstantinov)

The first concert took place on November,26 of 1986 on the stage of music teachers training college. According to Andrey Konstantinov at the end of the performance the audience stood up and musicians understood that their choice was right^[1]. Since that time November, 26 is considered to be the birthday of the ensemble.

In 1988 Terem-Quartet was invited to take part in "White Nights" festival in Hamburg. Here musicians performed with Mariinsky Theatre soloist Vladimir Chernov, ballerina Lubov Kunakova and pianist Pavel Egorov. Also in that year director Igor Vladimirov proposed to write music for perfomance "Love till Death" (Lubov do Groba).

In 1989 Melodiya released the first LP record of the ensemble - "Terem-Quartet". At this time Terem-Quartet began to cooperate with Saint Petersburg State Academic Capella. Besides the ensemble began to give performances abroad: in Germany, Spain, Sweden, Italy and People's Republic of China. This year musicians received diplomas of higher education in music.

1990-s

In 1991 Terem-Quartet was invited to take part in Womad. Within the bounds of this event musicians performed on one stage with Peter Gabriel, Sinéad O'Connor, Suzanne Vega and Led Zeppelin. At Peter Gabriel's instance Real World Records recorded the first CD of the ensemble - "The Terem". This Cd was released in 1992. Allmusic Guide gives 4.5 stars to it: "The Quartet's eccentric approach transforms everything it touches into shades of humor and delight^[2]". In the next years Terem-Quartet repeatedly performed on Womad.

In 1994 Pope John Paul II invited Terem-Quartet to Vatican. Here at the "Family Day" holiday they gave concert to 120-thousand audience. Among the listeners was Mother Teresa who blessed the musicians and presented them medallions^[3]. This year two cds were released: "Classical" and "1000 concert" (1000-й концерт). The first one was released by "Real World Records" and received its name after Mozart's, Schubert's, Glinka's and Chopin's pieces in it. The second is a recording of the 1000 concert in Saint Petersburg Philharmonia and it was released on Terem-Quartet label.

In 1998 Terem-Quartet performed on Edinburgh festival and solo concerts of the ensemble received the highest mark of "Scotsman" newspaper^[4]. This year Terem-Quartet took part in performance of Anton Chekhov's work and this one was awarded the highest theatrical prize "Golden Soffit" (Zolotoy Sophit).

In 1999 within the bounds of Alexander Pushkin 300-anniversary celebration Terem-Quartet played Alexander Chaikovsky's opera in St. James's Palace. Among the listeners was Prince Charles. This year two Cds were released: «No, Russia cannot be perceived by wit» ("Intuition" Label) is awarded 4 stars by Allmusic: "These classically-trained musicians exhibit masterful technique at their tools. The sounds they make seem to arise from an ensemble much greater than a quartet. Subtle, inventive, and gifted with a sense of humor, their gypsy turns thrill and enthrall"^[5]. The second - "Flea Waltz" (Sobachy Vals) was released by "Bomba-Piter" and mostly consists of classical compositions adapted by the ensemble.

2000-2010

In 2000 the line-up suffered changes: Igor Ponomarenko was replaced by Alexey Barshev. This year National Geographic Society shooted a film about Terem-Quartet.

In 2001 the ensemble celebrated its 15-anniversary. For this occasion a great Russia-tour (50-concerts) and release of "Jubillenium" cd were organized.

In 2002 "Bomba-Piter" released a 3 cd compilation: "Anthology I", "Anthology II" and "Anthology III". Besides the "Russian Sufferings" album was released.

In 2003 Terem-Quartet organized its own world music festival in Saint Petersburg. It comprised five concerts: Dora Shwarzberg (Austria), Sexteto Canyengue (Netherlands), Boris Berezovsky, Martin Frost (Sweden) and Ural Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Dmitry Liss. The next year the second festival was set up. This one comprised four concerts: Vladimir Chernov, Sexteto Canyengue, The Real Group (Sweden), Richard Galliano and Michelle Portal (France). The third festival took place in 2005 and comprised three concerts among which one was of Swingle Singers.

In 2004 3 cds were released: "Terem-Quartet and Friends" (featuring Remake ensemble, Vladimir Chernov, Joji Hirota, Svetlana Kruchkova, Dora Shwarzberg, Igor Sharapov, Arkady Shilkloper and Igor Dmitriev), "2000-th concert" (recording of the concert in Saint Petersburg Philharmonia in March,25 of 2004) and "Neapolitan Songs" (joint project with Vladimir Chernov).

In 2006 Terem-Quartet was invited to take part in several important political events: Russia-Singapore Forum in Singapore and G8 summit in Saint Petersburg. On June,28 Terem-Quartet for the first time performed with ballet and in the perioud of November,24 - 27 the fourth world music festival was organized. During its long life the ensemble traveled a lot and in October of 2007 the concert in the 60-th country (South Korea) was performed.

On April, 5 of 2008 Terem-Quartet organized Forum in which musicians all over the world represented their native countries: Great Britain (Swingle Singers), France (Bratch), Scotland (Shooglenifty), Sweden (Real Group), Iceland (Diddú), Japan (Joji Hirota) and Russia (Yuri Shevchuk, Igor Butman and Pelageya Khanova). Also this year the «Diddu og Terem» was released. All vocal parts were recorded by Diddú.

In 2009 Terem-Quartet opened the Eurovision second semi-final in Moscow. For this event musicians prepared 6-munute potpourri of songs-winners of this competition ("Waterloo" by Abba, "Volare", "Diva" by Dana International, "Beleive" by Dima Bilan and Ding-A-Dong by Teach-In). This year dvd "Terem-Quartet or Imperceptibles" (Terem-Quartet Y Snova Neulovimiye) was released. It comprises compositions from popular Soviet movies, Charlie Chaplin's ones and Mission: Impossible Theme.

In 2010 with the assistance of Saint Petersburg government and Ministry of Culture Terem-Quartet organized "Terem Crossover First International Music Competition" in Saint Petersburg.

Style

In 1991 Peter Gabriel called the ensemble style "Teremism" by analogy with "communism"^[6]. In European terminology Terem-Quartet's style is known as "World music"^[6].

In the "Creative Infantry" (Tvorchesky Desant) programme the musicians themselves spoke about their style: the instruments they play give wit to any genre that is why the ensemble turned to classical music, to jazz and to folk-rock but the basis lays in Russian culture, national customs and Russian original world-view. Meanwhile Andrey Konstantinov added that they take all the best from both western and eastern cultures.

The name of the ensemble resembles this attitude: "Terem" is a big house which unites musical currents all over the world.

Terem is not only a house. It is a place where everything is fine. When creating the ensemble if we had set our goal to make money we wouldn't have become Terem. We always have had a sublime goal - to create contemporary music on the basis of national one so that it was clear and public. So that it excited us and the audience (Andrey Konstantinov)^[7].

Sometimes musicians called their style "Terem" but then the appropriate word was found - "crossover". Andrey Konstantinov explained that this genre implies the combination of different styles in order to express music content in a more interesting way.

Terem-Quartet was invited to various festivals, it participated in jazz, classical, rock and even punk ones^[8].

Critics

The Quartet's immaculate musicianship shines like an illuminated manuscript...(Independent)^[9]

Mozart, Chopin and Bizet as you've never heard them before - classical music become theatre. (The Scotsman)^[9]

Love, hatred, irony, more philosophical feelings, all of these are mixed in Russian music, it's very spiritual. (Independent)^[9]

Nikita Mikhalkov said that it was important for him to find a wonderful combination of professionalism, musicality, mischief and root structure in the ensemble^[10].

Yuri Shevchuk after the joint performance with the ensemble said that his band DDT and Terem-Quartet will be friends. For 20-anniversary he presented the notes of his songs in a hope that Terem-Quartet sometime will perform one of them^[11]. Terem-Quartet took part in recording of 3 songs form DDT's "Beautiful Love" (Prekrasnaya Lubov) album.
